Alex
Rutterford is an accomplished British film director and graphic designer. He studied graphic design at the Croydon School of Art and graduated in
1991. He started his professional career by designing vernacular graphics for
sets of films such as Judge Dredd. He then worked as an art director and designer, on clothing design,
logos, and album covers (for record labels such as Warp Records, One Little Indian Records, Parlophone, Sony Music). He also did computer modelling, animation and image manipulation. He
was a member of the design team lost in space where he worked as CG artist and creative director. He paints in his quiet time, and has amassed a number of abstract works
on canvas.

His most well-known works include the
videos for "Gantz Graf" by Autechre, "Verbal" by Amon Tobin and "Go to Sleep" by Radiohead. Lesser known is the unofficial video he created for the Autechre track
"Eutow" as part of the Channel 4 music programme Lo-fi in 2001. His short film work includes Sound
Engine, an early study made for onedotzero2 set to an Autechre song; 3space, again specially made for
Onedotzero and set to the overture of Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro; and Monocodes. All these films and videos consist of 3Dcomputer generated imagery, and feature visuals that follow the rhythm of the music very closely. He
ws design director on two music videos directed by Cunningham, namely Björk's "All Is Full of Love (1999), and Squarepusher's "Come On My Selector" (1998) for which he created the video
screens. He also did the camerawork, together with Rob Bliss, for Cunningham's Rubber Johnny.

His works have appeared in film
festivals, DVD releases, and the Motion Blur published by Laurence King, Lovebytes, and several other digital film DVD compilations. He has won a Clio Gold and an ANDY Award. After being repped by production companies RSA and Black Dog, the promo division of RSA, for many years, he signed with
Joyrider in spring 2012.

For over a decade, during his spare
time and for his own pleasure, Alex has applied his creative drive to painting.
He has accumulated a number of paintings that are purely personal, and form a
body of work that reflects his inspiration derived from music, cosmology and
modern times. He has enough work to form a selling exhibition, but running shy
of commercial galleries, remains to be persuaded. Hopefully it is only a matter of time.
